FAWT 03 Silo vawt Wind Turbine savonius vertical axis hawt diy ametek green

vawt.tk or wrapwind.com vawt vertical axis wind turbine hawt green. -first i lifted the silo 3 feet -i tested the propset with blades extended -i increased the gap bettween the prop and the FAWT bottom -i increased the gap bettween the prop tips and the wall that covers the prop -i tested the carbon fiber blades -all testing was done at approx 15 kmh winds.and maybe gusts of wind at 20kmh FAWT SILO is a fixed axis wind turbine but it uses lift based p-rops, i have playing with this idea for few years now in my head, i decided to give it a go, it is at the begining stages and there alot of mods still to be done. the idea is to take the air from horizontal to a downward direction and at the same time is to totally hide the proppeler from view. i am hoping and predicting that it will be 60% effecient VS the HAWT. the first step is to build one 4 times as big where the top and bottom defflectors will be 4 feet in width. i hope you enjoy this video and not shoot me down as much. think diffrent…… wind turbine generator Ametek renewable energy vawt hawt Vertical Savonius diy environment green roof power plans free controller batteries windturbine alternative efficiency efficient electric electricity grid homemade vertical axis goderich ontario, vawt “wind turbine” generator, hawt, vertical, wind, turbine, axis, green, energy, wind mill best regards

  1. Energy sources without the need for fuel or energy input exist ,But the Establishment doesn’t want ppl to know this,Go to LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM and get the blueprints for a genuine magnet motor ,Let the revolution begin!

  2. The Oil companies are trying their best to stop free energy ideas from spreading to common ppl.
    We need to put an end to this corruption ,start generating your own electricity now.
    Visit LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM and get the blueprints . Join the Revolution!!

  3. Aeinar, thanks for your intrest, i have placed this project on hold for now. i am trying to finish The Column VAWT project. i will get some data for you as soon as i can.
    the only messurment i have is 18kmh 42 watt. not much but i still can improove it with more efficient wind deflection. but for now the project is on hold.

    Best Regrads

  4. This is amazing!
    It seems to have some serious output!
    Have you measured what the wattage output is?
    I’m really interested to know!
    What kind of speeds can the unit withstand?

  5. yes, the Big O did improove the wind travel downward.
    thanks

    sam

  6. Nice design. 1 question, though. The ‘big O’ you placed around the edge, was that to create a sort of Venturi effect? To speed up the wind coming in from above?

  7. hey now that is a cool design and it is eye pleasing also it really gets them blades going good :)

  8. thanks Erik, it is Dangerous, it should have been 3 feet higher.
    your projects look promissing too, keep up the good work.

    regards

  9. don’t come to close with that cam. hehe.
    That thing would take out your cam easely and your hand too.
    Extremly cool turbine.
    Looks really hard to build but you did it.
    Congrats.
    Greetings

  10. Hi there guys, I am working on a new style of FAWT, a bit simpler in design.

    Winter is coming in fast here in Canada, it will be an indoor project for now.

    Best regards

  11. i relised that ceiling fans are capable of producing ok power and they are all over the junk yard, the magnets can be found in speakers or old PC hard drives.

    here in north America we can buy Neo magnets, but other places in the world not so lucky.

    regards

  12. hi there guys, just to give you a qiuck update, i am working on the blades, but the homemade blades are folding backwards, i tried a ring on the back side and it works but noisy.
    the blade housing cover fell on me. i readjusting how it is mounted.
    always fun,
    so you know the objective is to make my blades and PMA from things we can find arround us.

  13. thanks, i am going to test with other diffrent prop shapes to figure out the best style.

    regards

  14. Super!
    Wash must still set on the axis of rotation fixed fairing to increase the speed of the wind and not lose half of the wind flow. Like the airplane, the propeller.

    regards

  15. well, i am not sure that this is true, when i had it on the deck, it was pointed in one direction only, the wind might have been on a angle. but in the FAWT Silo the wind hit it at approx 90 degrees, with a great air compressed force. i still have all kinds of improvement to do but i am follwing trial and error test, i do not have and fancy tools.

    regards

  16. Thanks. It looks like it turns faster in your funnel than it does just out in the open. Is that what you saw too?

    Plus it’s kind of nice that the funnel protects the blades and keeps people from getting hurt.

  17. thanks man, it does not look the best but for a backyard frist test, it it pretty sweet.

    regards

  18. the custom blades has alot more tork, not like the carbon fiber ones. so the custom blades require custom pmg and carbon fiber blades can use dc motor like the treadmill dc or ametek.

    regards

  19. thanks dude,i hope it land where no one can sue me…lol… i am planing to mount my “custom propset 01″ with the cieling fan i moded on the fawt Silo…that will be another vid..

    thanks again

  20. vawt 350rpm vs fawt custom propset 01 are arround 450rpm very simulair at wind 15kmh.
    i did not messure the carbon fiber blades, they are way up there on speed i think 800rpm at 15kmh

    regards

  21. another awesome update. this thing rips I hope it does not fly away while you sleep.and if it does I hope it lands at my house.GREAT JOB KEEP US UPDATED THANKS

  22. what is the rpm of the fixed axis wind turbine compared to the vawt rpm?

  23. DO drop the cat in there!!!

    BUT

    Save the dogs :D

  24. You did it! Congratulations!

  25. Don’t drop the cat in there!

    I’m impressed with the airflow even though you have re-directed it!
